[QUOTE="rcoody, post: 1181064, member: 91090"] well lets think about this a bit. What are the differences between your fired brass and virgin brass. have you checked the difference in runout between your virgin brass loads and the fired brass loads. Could be something is throwing the case neck alignment out of whack. wouldn't take much. We know that the volume of a fired case and virgin case is different. Case volume increases after firing. You might want to do a little fine tuning on your load. surely neck tension is different from virgin brass and fired brass. How do you clean your brass? That virgin brass was clean and tarnished. I find it always grips the bullet firmer than fired and cleaned brass. do you have a way of measuring seating effort? Do you find it easier or harder when you are seating bullets between the fired and virgin brass? any other differences you guys can think of? [/QUOTE]
